TEAM UPDATEMany of you know the story of the challenges our incredible designer and teammate Kat and her husband Taylor faced with their pregnancy last year. Many prayers went up on their behalf and on 11.15.18, they gave birth to their darling little girl Maeve Atley. She is absolutely precious!Maeve is fighting a condition called CDH and because of that, Kat & Taylor have temporarily relocated to Tampa where she can receive the best possible care. But little Maeve is already showing everyone she is a fighter and is doing really well.We are excited for their return to Georgia, but until then, please continue to keep them in your prayers as they still have a long journey ahead as Maeve recovers from surgeries and additional health challenges that CDH brings. God is good, and we are all very grateful for Kat, Taylor, and sweet little Maeve!

NEW MEDIA MISSIONWhen it comes to what we share in the world of social media, we are entering 2019 with a new mission. Just like you, we can so easily get caught up in what seems to be a flawless feed of perfect work by others. We get it! We all end up with media fatigue at the end of some days and struggle against a lack of gratitude and a sense of FOMO that comes with a quick social media scroll.

But along the way, we’ve discovered that the more vulnerable we are about what’s actually going on behind the perfect photo frame, the more freedom we feel from all the social media hang-ups. We’ve grown more attracted to the messes than the picture-perfect moments because the messes are what make up real life. They meet us where we are.

And so this year, we’ve made a new media mission at Truth & Co: “Share the mess, not just the success.”

Our goal is to be both authentic and vulnerable on our feeds, sharing not just the “Before and After” but the “After-After,” the place where the moment meets the mess. That means along with beautiful design and picturesque rooms, you’ll also see us stumbling over toys, navigating piles of laundry and endless dishes, and just trying to keep up with the hectic state of life some days. We’ll be honest because, let’s be real, aren’t we all dealing with some mess along the way? You’ll see our mess and hopefully remember, you’re not alone in your own!

So here’s to a new year of hopefully experiencing more of the goodness and beauty all around us, not in the absence of the mess, but right in the middle of it.
